Training a dog isn’t always as easy as it looks. It takes time, and patience, and effort, from you and from your dog. And, actually, it takes a lot more than that. It takes knowing your dog’s personality and tailoring your teaching to best fit that personality. It takes positive reinforcement, and no, not always with treats, but also with a calm, “Good job,” and a nice head rub.

The point here is that whether your dog is well-trained or not depends a whole heck of a lot on YOU. Keep that in mind as you navigate your way through the fun quiz we’ve put together for you below.

Beginning the quiz is simple: just click ‘Start’, then answer all seven of the multiple choice questions. After you’ve completed the quiz, be sure to challenge your friends to see how they stack up!

Good luck, and enjoy!

QUIZ: Find Out If Your Dog Is As Well-trained As You Think

SHARE this quiz with all of your friends!

Your dog is very well-trained

Your dog is really, really eager to learn. And, more than that, they have little issue retaining the commands and tricks you teach them. Kudos to the two of you for working together.

Continue to feed your dog’s mind responsibly, and with care, and soon enough your dog may just be training YOU 😉

Not so well-trained… YET!

So what if your dog didn’t fit nicely into a different category of this quiz? It doesn’t mean they aren’t trainable. It just may mean that you need to re-evaluate what you’re trying to teach them, and how you’re trying to teach them.

And hey, if you’re new to this whole dog guardian thing, and your dog is new to you being its guardian, don’t sweat it: the two of you will figure it all out together. And if you and your dog are old friends? It doesn’t mean training can’t take place! That’s right, an old dog totally CAN learn new tricks.
